Why Your Relationship to Life is the Most Powerful Healing Tool with Matt + Joy Kahn | EP 91

And that means that every day I have an opportunity to be the course corrective experience for anyone who's been hurt by a male or a Caucasian person or a white male. And then every day I get to pay attention, I get to listen and I get to offer course corrective experiences for whatever experiences are around me. And it brought my awakening fully into my body and it grounded it.

A couple of things come to me on this. One is that forgiveness is the ability to say, yes, this happened to me. But when I invite forgiveness, and of course the first step of forgiveness is having the right not to forgive. Because it has to be... That's right. You have to be ready for it.

But forgiveness is a way of saying, I'm not going to ignore the fact that while this happened to me, there is also an invitation for me... to utilize the aftermath of that experience to make myself into a person that can inspire and transform other people who have been hurt. Because when we're hurt, we spiral in our hurt.

And so in a lack of forgiveness, we say, I dwell on the hurt and I miss the opportunity to come out of it and to transform myself in a certain way. And something that I've never... share publicly. We both go through so many experiences, and so we're always different versions of ourselves. And this conversation about forgiveness actually, for me, relates to self-realization.

Because for me, self-realization has been an experience I've had. I had many experiences, and people could talk about being in samadhi, and I've been in that state for many, many years. And I thought that that was it. I thought it was it.

And what I've realized, because to realize the divine within you is kind of a part of waking up out of this delusion where we project onto the universe the qualities of our parents and our upbringing. And so when the divine is within me, I don't have these parents suppressing me. And what I realized in my experience is that the divine always calls on the divine to carry out the divine's mission.
